" I removed my:head-quarters an the 21st cur rent, to Velada, according to. what I mentioned in my former dispatch of the same night. Thiscom manication was made aiter.l had seep at Oropesa, in the evening of that day, the gallant and Thustrious army of the English. These forces having all re united in that town, 1 ordered my vanguard to be placed before Velada, concluding. that the - firing I then discovered was a skirmishing of our parties with an. advanced body of the curry, stationed at that time in the district of Gatilonal,,two leagues dis, tant from Talavera, and which in the sequel was routed and pursued to Casar. At break of day on the 22d, my army .being assembled in the extensive plain between Velada and Talavera, I directed that the / vanguard, under the intrepid Chief Brigedier- General Don Josef de Zayas, should charge the enemy, wit*, had been reinfOrced with the division of cavalry'of General Latour itaubourg, and I di rected that the divisions of infantry and cavalry should march in close order, that thus advancing towards Talavera, they might resist the attack, if the French should endeavour to force the entrance to this place, as they seemed to have determined. The dispatch of Zayas, No: 1, sent by this opportunity, will give you a perted knowledge of what occurred on that morning. "(This communication is .pro mised in a new Supplement to the Seville Gazetie, - but was not published at the time of the departure of the vessel.) " The whole army followed the vanguard, pass ing by Talavera, ,and took up a position in the olive grounds, between that town and the. Wier Albert - Ale. The British army on the night of the 21st, marched from Oropesa, and on the tolloiving morning, unit ed with us, andiwhile the vanguard attacked and ic pulsed the enemy, the English also filet ott L Tala vera, to take op a position on .our lett, accord,ng to the plan agreed. It was, WWI Exceilent Sr,, a mag nificent exhibitiou, when • we saw the combined armies in a plain of two leagues exieui, advancing upon the enemy, and most brilli2nt and gratu hig was the admirable order, tirlunes,.and with which this- movemeht. wus pertorweu t,y ,our Allies. The whole evening 'of we wvte re, commit ring' the camp of. the enemy, when .we. jolt some prisoners between the Wood and the 011%.e grounds, who could not reach their vanguard, winch had been ouliged to retreat in consequence of an' [Tepid chargit by our cavalry. " Duriug• the whole of the 23d.nothing deserv ing notice happened. It was turplo . %ed in exatuin ing the position . ot the enemy, who, had again ciiticentraied his forces in the distria of Casale gas, curd on the adjacent heighis, preserving his vanguard supported by some pieces fit arisliery oat the bridge and. sores of the river..A.iberche, and .which fired the greater part of the day od our skit- mishaig porttea. .‘! I had agreed with the General in Chief of his Britannic:. Majesty's army, Sir Arthur. Welleflq, as to th:f attack on the bridge aid shows, or the rivtr betore day-break - of the 4th, and to tins purpose I sent onward the sth division. ot .in;autry under M3r shal de Camp D. Luis de, 13o,secouri, in evening of the'23d, m °icier, that atter having crossed at the Ford of Cartliel, three leagues from :4 . alavera, URI might march by the con; igo-i,,us heigh ts, so as by br e ak of day on the 24th to tali on thefehr-guard.a4 l i g ht flank of the army of the enemy at C.asalegas... At tile same _hour, 7"1 proposed to attack iii person on the left flank, and a part of .his front, while tile Eng lish :army assailed thew hole of his right. The flight of the enemy during:the night of the 230, discon certed this plan,. and when at dawn of the 24th, we saw the French camp , abandone_d, I thought it pro= per to follow them witti.,triy army alone (as the. ,130- thin army remained in Casalegas and the shores of the Alberche), With the hope ot. reaching his rear guard,.or some portion of it. - The news which I acquired_of .his route,- _appriseditne that_he had pro ceeded in two columns by,Santa Olalla and Cebolla, • _ and in consequence, 1. divided iny,arniy so asio tol • low him in both direCtions. -Notwithstanding the forced Match of my army, Mho qua‘leAlieir day's pro gross-without fatigue, . we could . ntunccomplish our object., ...as the enemy had early commenced his ; re ' treat, and hod •proceetted with great •rapidity. On the .24th, .having pasted myselt in Santa - Olalla, I ordered the troops.which had taken•the.road of Ce :bollal'tc; join nut, !with tlictpxception of the sth corps, which. I . left there to watch the:district, placing the vanguardin the neighbouzlioed, of Alea 7 • hati . ., from; whence the piquets of the enenry were dislodged, :and pursued to Torrijos, where a con sideranie part ot the army of .the erietny was sta tione;l. •, • - - " The whole of the 25th was engaged in giving repose to the troops, and 'in apportioning ,the t-tt .. . , - lions, whicu. were. extremely deficient. l'aoics of the reach during the day - Were employed either in endavouring to dislodge. us from our posts, : or to reconnoitre our situation, but in bothattenipts they Were disappointe4 by the valotir Of•tlie Officers com intilkhia•,:, the SkirMishing parties, whb attacked them , on al, bides, add prevented their approac h . - At nine o'clock at night, of the same day, I had. infortna nun that the enemy was advancing 1.11)0 Torrijus,_ and that his - Whole army was in movement, but my advices did not instruct me •to which point the greater part was proceeding. On hearing this, I apprised the Generals, and dispatched 39 7 .qt - 1 - leer. to General Wellesley. In consequence of "ids deter mination and•diredion, and on•findinetny vanguard powerfullk attacked on the morning of the 26th, by a very superior force, and the enemy indicating a de sign of making. a.general attack, 1 'resolved to make • a retrograde movement upon the Atberc.be, to re unite with the EnoliSli, which I effected on the even . ing ot the: banns day. ,The disliatches of Brigadier-General Don Josef de Zayas, and, •of Oeutenaut-General tile:Duke of Albuquerque, Nos:2 and 3, (not yet published) ex plain the particUlars'of the action on the morning of that day, atYd in • which" the corps there mentioned .acquired great credit fur their firmness and • valour, a. after hitying•conferred with General Wellesley that night on our situation, - I resolved to repass the Al berche on the morning of the; following day, when we agreed that the right line should - be taken by the Spanish, aud the lett'by the.. English army: The English vanguard remained during that night at Ca' , salegas, and on the heights'neaiit, Lientenan t- General Sit6rbrooke, with dt&rs'totetire to the op posite side Of he firer, were obeyed on the mottling of the 27th. • • • ,• " I nitistrnow.cbserve, that at dawn on -the 24th Marshal Vigor had WithdraWn from the post.lieoc 7 tupied on the shores of the Alberche, in - order. 'to avoid the attack meditated on t hat ,day .by the allied army ; and he afterwards united himself, in tfid neighbourhood of Toledo, with the forces under Ge neral Sehastiarti„ and. with 800 men conpOsing the guard of the Royal Impostor, who took the com mand 'of the whole, thus congregated; assisted Marshals Jourdan and Vigor ; .and by General Se bastiani. "It now appeared that the enemy wished tol - iring on a general attion,by the freqUent approich,of his ad vanced guard, and-by the occupation of Santa aalla by the whole of his army on the•evening of the.26th. His outpoSts ,then approached the . allied army. 7-- Thus circumstanced, at bfeak of day on the g7th, the positio❑ agreed upon was taken ; and Sir Arthur Wellesley ordered General Mackenzie, with a divi sion-of E t rigliSh infantry and a brigade of cavalry, to continue in the olive p!antation on the right side of the Alberehe, where this party, composing the van guard, might cover the right flank •of the BiitiSh army. " The whole combined army occupied an, extent of ground of abOVe three miles ; the right towards the Tagus, - was covered by burii iy6 - t toopi reaching. to the. front of Talavera. The ground on the irk Was occupied by the English . army, open to and 'commanded by an elevation, where was as sembled 'ln a, Second. lithe a divisidn of English in .fanny; under the, orders of Gen.. Hill. Between ~ this height,an-d a chain of mountains at some dis tance, there is an indosore, - which iry he first instance .Gen. Wellesley did not order .to be defended, be cause it was commanded by he. height; and because it was considered too distant.to .be oieful in the ap proaching battle. The the ground on which the Spanish army :Was dr7l)_ was - covered with olive plantations,- interse&ed by sinuosities, inefina -litie4, _and cottages. 'The great road towards the bridge of Alberche was defended by a strong bat tery, served by our infantry, in front of the hermitage of Our Lady of the Prado. The other avenues of 'tile district were defended in 'a similar manner. Ta lavera: was proteCted by, an- appointed garriSon, and the rest, of: the Spanish infantry, forming twO,lines-, was placed behind a village which is at .the extremity of the district, and formed a litre in con tinuation m the position taltf-m by the English army. In the centre, and between the two armies, there was. a rising ground, whereAlre English had begtin to 'construct a strong redoubt, !laving in their rear a small piaitz. At this, point was 'stationed the: Eng': lishGeneral ,Campbell, who:Commanded a division of infantry, supported by the. brigade,of dragoons,of General Cotton, and by, soru squadrons of our ca- Vairy. " Our. combined army being thus arranged, the eneuty presented hiniself in considerable force to our l• view, tyymit,sting, at first, an intention to attack the di%ision et the vanguard under Gen. Machenzie.— In .'point of fad, he fulfilled this design before that Officer Was enabled to retire to'his-proper positioh ; but these gallanLand_disciplitted troops WhiCh COlil posed the brigade of Gen. Mackenzie, of Col. Don kins; the brigade . of cavalry of• Gen. Anson; and their corps, supported by . Gen. l 3 aytie,..wit h tour- regiments of cavalry, posted hi 'the 'plain . of olive grounds of Talavera, -retired in rnos - f-adtnirable4der, but not without some loSs in tice:olhe Wounds, - particularly t wed of the corps of* this diyision.. The , regular:ty, steadiness,and fortitn a of all these troops, as'.wellas t he military talent s of Gen. IVlaekenzieokereConspicu ons in every movement, and , t his officer is deserving of the highiteSt. praise and admiration for the coolness and serenity with which he withdrew this :divisien to the left of the British army. " Tire niumber of - the enemy increased on the right:bank of the Alb,n - chegs the day advanced, and every thing indicated iiisdeterMination to give battle to the combined lorce. "As dusk approltdied,' he cymmenced fitriOus • affficktiji a - Cann:o(4lC/ and a charge by die whole.ot his ttualry, on the'tighf, l -Occopied by the Spranish infantry"; with . the ' atparent design 'of breaking theOugh our ranks, poSted as'l have beforedescribed. This attack was(r,ceived , by an active -fire lierfealri well'iffistaitied,bothol carth n and musketry, which di.lconcerted- the purpose Of the enemy and •put hint to flight at a quarter past eight. During this tine a strcritg;diVi4ion . rif adv.ynced by the valley to' the'lefeb r f . the ,I;eight occtipted by the Etiglish General Rill, of, which, with very great loss, they Obtained a momentary Possession, but Hill returned to the - charge plesently 'with the bayonet, drove off the enemy, and recovered his ground.' In the night the French- repeated their attack,' but without' suc ceeding, and with great loss. At break .of: day on the 28th they returned with two divisions: of infan try, but they. were repulsed by the bravekliili who could tact be intimideted•bY their repeated attempts, or by the pregtes'siYe a&umulation of the forces of the -assa i [ants. • General . WelleSley,• its consequence of these•re newel exertions of the enemy by the valley; on the left side . of't he height, ordered thither two brigades of his cavalry'; supported 6y Lieut.-General the Duke of Albuquetque, with the whole of his division of ca valry. - The French, seeing'.this movement, -sent slkarp-shooters into 'the chain of Mountains to the left of the valley, who were attacked by the stli di- • vision of my infantry under Marshal de Camp Don. -Lois Bassecout t, who dislodged them vv,ithltuudi., . . , t icked ihe,centre - of the army, where Gen.

At the same time• with these pl ., •ceettings, the French attacked with fury the centre of the English army, command. ed by General , SherbrooktF. • The foes, were received with extraordinary coura,e,` and were driven back by the WhoteEiiglish division, with charged baro 7 nets. But the Englishz'brigade of guards, whith 'Was 'carried onward precipitately in the ardour oe battle, advanced too • far, and was in consequence obliged to withdraw under the fire of - the second line, composed of the brigade' of cavalry of Gene ral Cotton, and•of a battalion of infantry detached' from the height by Gen.
